BetGames Lucky 7 Colour Lines

I was topping up data at the local corner shop when my friend Sipho texted me, asking why I was constantly checking results every five minutes. I told him that it was BetGames Lucky 7 time, and if you follow the rhythm of the draws, you can keep your head cool and keep the risks low.

When I got home I opened YesPlay on my phone. YesPlay hosts BetGames’ live Lucky 7, which is a simple numbers draw with basic rules. Seven balls come out of a set of forty-two, half of which are black and the other half yellow.

How it runs

Before each draw I always spend a little bit of time coming up with a betting strategy. I’m mostly deciding whether I want to bet on individual numbers to land or not, try my luck with black or yellow patterns, call odd or even mixes, try to guess the total sum band, or predict how many balls of each colour show up. If you’ve played Roulette before, it feels kind of like that, only with numbered balls.

Whenever friends ask me where to go to read about all the official wording, I usually send them more information you can find here, since YesPlay always explains everything clearly. I generally avoid trying to guess one exact number, since there are 42 numbers to choose from. If I feel like taking a big risk, I might place a small bet on a cluster.

Bets I rate

·       Colours total over or under a target number, pays about even. Good for building up your spending money

·       Plain colours, either more black or more yellow, pay nearly even and are easy to keep track of

·       The total sum of the lanes, either above or below the mid band. A decent option when the table generates high or low results.

·       Total count of colours, when there’s nearly the same amount of each colour it’s pretty common, but pays out more if it changes

·       Odd or even mixes, tiny plays that will keep your bankroll steady.

·       Numbers, only four-ball hits pay good, but they have too much variance.
